This invention relates to advertising devices and more particularly is directed to a combination pamphlet holder and sample carrier.

One object of the invention is to-provide a device of the character described in the form of an improved Wrapper for advertising matter, portions of which are constructed to engage with box, receptacle or package containing a sample to which the advertising matter refers.

Another object of the invention is toprovide a device of the character described including a folder type of wrapper having a flap closure for retaining printed matter, a portion of said wrapper being 'slitted to form tabs for engaging a receptacle to attach the latter to the wrapper and for holding the flap closure shut.

A further object of the invention is to provide a device of the character described, which shall be very simple and easy tov construct yet form a neat and attractive article, cheap to manufacture, and practical and eilicient to a high degree in use.

Other objects of this invention will in part be obvious and in part hereinafter pointed out.

The invention accordingly consists in the features of construction, combinations of ele ments, and arrangement of parts which will be exemplified in the construction hereinafter described, and of which the scope of application will be indicated in the follow ing claims.

In the accompanying drawings, in which is shown one of the various possible illustrative embodiments of this invention,

Fig. 1 is a perspective view of the improved advertising holder and sample carrier embodying the invention.

Fig. 2 is a cross-sectional view taken on line 22 in Fig. 1.

Fig. 3 is a fragmentary perspective View showing a modified form of carton attachment means embodying the invention.

Fig. 4: is a perspective View showing a modified construction of the advertising holder and sample carrier embodying the invention.

. Referring in detail to the drawin'g,1'0 dcnotes an advertising holder and sample carrier embodying the lnvention which is here I seen to comprise a cover or wrapper 1-1 formedof any suitable sheetmaterialgsuch 56 as cardboard, heavy or light stock paper or the like. Said wrapper may be formed of a single sheet blank comprising a central portion 11a and foldable flaps 11c extending longitudinally from opposite sides of said central portion 11a, said flaps beingslitted as at 11-0 to form tabs 12 which are adapted to engage a receptacle or package 13 iii a" manner hereinafter more fully described.

he sheet formingsaid wrapper'll is-eu't to form the blank, creased and folded to form" enveloping member for enclosing printed matter 14, such as directions for use, testimonials, advertising items, etc, as clearly shown in Fig. l. The device 10 is partic'ularly adapted to accompany samples forming the contents of said receptacle 13 and as here shown thelatter' comprises a box having a casing 180/ which forms a housing for a slidablecompartinent'13?),- as is shown" in" Fig. '2. The tabs 12 arefo'rmed for inse'rtion: in the casing-13a between the bottom" side thereon and said compartment member 136, (see Fig. 1), so that the receptacle 13 is secured to thedevice 10 to overlie the flaps 116 and retain the latter in their folded position. a v l y Qne'or more suitably shaped openings 11d" maybe provided'in said flaps 11b for expos ing a portion of theprinting on the matter casing and the compartment member 1312'. :3

The receptacle thus retains the device as sembled form" and it may be distributed in any desired manner as by enclosin'g'it in an envelope andma'iling.

Although the construction of the combine vided with a central body portion 111a and portionforming a wrapper foldable side flaps 1116 and the alignedend edges 1110 of said flaps are slitted as at 111d to form tabs 112 which are adapted to be in-- serted between'and engaged'with portions of the receptacle (not shown) in a manner similar to that shown in Fig. p In Fig. 1 a modified construction of the advertising holder and sample carrier embodying the invention is shown. Here the wrapper is made in the form of an envelope 211 having a-closedend 211a, the edge portion 211?) of the openlend of said wrapper being slitted as at 2110 to form tabs 212. Said .tabs are adapted to be inserted between and engaged with'portions of the receptacle (not shown) in;the manner described above for wrapper 11 and 111. The wrapper 211 may also be provided with a suitably shaped central opening-211d for exposing a portion of the printing on the matter enclosed in the wrapper, as is clearly shown in Fig. 4.

Itwill thus be seen thatthereis provided ,a device in which the several objects of this of said portion forming a wrappera'dapted to enclose printed matter, and integral means incorporated in the edge portions of each flap forming an attachment member and a package secured to said attachment member forming a wrapper adapte'dto enclose printed matter, said flaps having tabs, and a reoe'ptacle engaging said tabs to overlie said flaps and retain the same in folded position.

5. Incombination, a deviceof the character describedformed of a single piece of sheet material cut, creased and folded to have a body portion, and foldable'fiaps extending longitudinally from opposite sides of said por tion forming a wrapper adapted to enclose printed matter,the aligned edges at one end of said flaps being slitted to form attachment means, anda receptacle attached to said means to overlie the flaps an-dto retain said flaps folded. g

In testimony whereof I afix my signature.
